I would like to know how many of ya own a Rock Island Amory 1911?? I have thought about buying one for possible carry and more for the fun of a low budget 1911 shooter...I have read great things bout this lil jewel but would like to know if anyone believes enough in them to use as a carry piece also?? My other option is an XDM9/40 but I already own a full size XD45TAC so I would like a lil 1911 and cant spend the savings on a nice SA TRP right now.....Thanks

Here are my suggestion(s)

If you are set on a 1911 NOW, get a basic GI model Springfield, para ordinance, colt, etc. Should be able to get one around mid 5s to mid 6s.

How bout a Walther PPS? That's my carry and its sweet!

Have you ever carried/ trained with a single action pistol?

Just wondrin.

I am saving for a 1911. I just HAVE to have one. But I have decided to wait until I can get the TRP or equal. Just can't justify spending 600 for a base model when I'm halfway to the TRP.
